Victory

The German Expeditionary Fleet's bombardment of Tokyo lasted for more than half a day. Every naval gun, apart from retaining a small number of shells for self-defense, fired all its remaining ammunition.

As a result, more than half of Tokyo was destroyed. This part of the city had been completely reduced to ruins. Even when the German fleet withdrew, the raging fires had yet to die out.

As for how many Island Nation people died in the German Expeditionary Fleet's bombardment, only preliminary estimates could be made; there was simply no way to obtain exact figures. The only certainty was that the death toll was enormous.

Perhaps not that many Island Nation people died directly under the German Expeditionary Fleet's shells. However, many perished in the fires caused by the bombardment. According to official Island Nation statistics, during the German Expeditionary Fleet's bombardment of Tokyo alone, as many as two hundred thousand Island Nation people died. Including the dead in other cities, the number would likely exceed five hundred thousand.

One had to know that the Island Nation's total population was only a little over fifty million. Such a death toll already accounted for one percent of its entire population. Such a proportion was undoubtedly staggering.

After destroying Tokyo, the Expeditionary Fleet swaggered away. Although the Island Nation Coastal Defense Force had attempted to stop it in the Uraga Channel, after being hammered by a fierce barrage from the Expeditionary Fleet, they finally lowered their banners and beat their drums, able only to watch helplessly as the German Expeditionary Fleet withdrew and vanished into Sagami Bay.

"**Baka! How did it come to this? Tokyo is the Empire's capital, yet now even Tokyo Metropolis has suffered German bombardment. Even the imperial palace where I reside has been destroyed by the Germans.
